The cover for Deadly Mates (Deadly Trilogy, #2)

Jade never thought she’d embrace being
a werewolf, but after having accepted her new role as alpha female of
Dog Mountain’s pack, she finds herself doing just that. She’s training
with the enforcers and learning to use the alpha within her to her
advantage. And for the most part, Jade is content, well at least with
her training she is.

But
Dog Mountain is a small town with big problems. The new alpha pair is
divided, splitting the already unstable pack with them, and to make
matters worse, Jade’s father is on his way home. Except Jade’s father
and his twisted pack of werecourgars aren’t the only threat.

When
Aidan brings in a new set of enforcers to weed out the problems within
the pack, Jade is forced to delve into the center of the issue. She soon
realizes that she is the indirect cause of the uneasiness within the
pack, and if Jade doesn’t fix it, she’ll lose everything, even Aidan.

My Opinion

*Insert fan girl scream here*

I think that sums up my excitement pretty well. This cover is gorgeous, absolutely breathtaking.

-In regards to the cover models-

Aidan is far more attractive than I pictured him... and I feel the urge to touch him. However, I just know Jade won't stand for that, unfortunately. His eyes are hypnotic, his hair is dashing, and that smirk makes me feel weak. *dreamy sigh* I have a weakness for bad boys and he fits the bill. I dig his tattoo and facial stubble as well... hell everything about him equals sheer perfection. Jade is gorgeous as always, it seems the wolf life is suiting her quite nicely. She looks far more mature now then she did on the cover of Deadly Crush. Her facial expression makes her look a bit snotty though and I'm not sure I like that. In a way I hope she grows out of that phrase.

-In regards to the color scheme and design-

I adore the autumn color scheme used on this cover, it's quite soothing. The font color makes the writing stand out without drawing away too much attention from the overall cover. The backdrop featuring the forest and wolves really ties in well with the synopsis. Ashley has done it again, another 5-Star cover!

TEASER

“Does it hurt?” I asked, and then swallowed hard. I lifted my hand and dabbed at the blood, wiping it away as best I could. “I hope it does. You’ve ruined everything.” Even though I said the words, they held no meaning. My voice was weak, straining against an onslaught of emotion blooming within my chest.

“No,” he grunted. “It’s already healed.” He grabbed my wrist, holding my shaking hand still. “I did what was needed. You’re not staying here any longer, Jade. This little game you’re playing ends now. I’m taking you home, where you belong.”

I clucked my tongue and dropped my gaze. More butterflies surfaced in my belly and I breathed, “This is where I belong.”

“Look me in the eyes and tell me that,” he said. When I didn’t lift my head he chuckled, a deep rumble that turned my knees to mush. “You can’t, can you?”

And now it's time for the giveaway...
